It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

A bullheaded poster on the level of LiberalSocialist has been fused to the spirit of a reddit CIAnarchist, and its fucking hilarious

their account is very recent, probably made for this very thread.

plz don't ban them its so much fun

oh no they PM'ing my Hexbear account now oh lawd they mad

they've been combing through the account them must have been pissed off

small addition for my pride's sake: Lemmygrad accounts cannot see my hexbear account, and since it is the one arguing in quite a lot of the post, without it there would be a lot of context missing and not asmany funny CIAnarchist moments.

Update: Even more PMs, the lib won't shut up

should I summon them?

Damn, that is one very lost redditor. I feel kind of bad honestly, this far away from the herd they are easy prey for local predators, assuming their lack of upvotes doesn't cause them to starve first.

Is this person trying to be a wrecker? I've never seen one so bad at it before. This really does just seem like a lost edgy kid, who picked "socialist" as his edgy ideology after flipping a coin.

I feel kind of bad honestly

Don't

Agreed. It's helped me a lot to realize the much as I wish otherwise, I do have a limit to my compassion and my energy to show it.

I know there are better people and causes out there, so if I can spare emotional labor/benefit of the doubt, I want to be discerning enough to not waste it.

I "love" the notion that every country has their own little self-contained capitalism or communism. No material analysis, just vibin' on the status quo

I refuse to set foot in that thread, I would lose myself in the struggle

[–] American_Communist22@lemmygrad.ml 38 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

they've already basically capitulated at this point, their only source is the CIA and now they're pming me with anti Hamas stuff from uh

they're citing the times of israel, they're bad at this

Just in case though, here take this woman for protection:

(a female revolutionary soldier from the Afghanistan communist coup in the 70s)

I've been reading that thread. It's the proverbial car crash one can't look away from.

I can't stop commenting make it stop

although now they've moved to trying to DM people about the argument, while also combing through profiles to examine everything we've said

they're like the incarnation of a Red Scare judge from the 50s.

[–] PoY@lemmygrad.ml 20 points 1 year ago (1 children)

In all my years on the internet I've never seen anyone spend hours repeating the same nonsensical questions, while completely disregarding well reasoned and thoughtful responses, to try to get a "gotcha" on a forum where there is so very little chance of anyone paying much attention beyond the first few responses except those that already see right through the ruse.

Only someone who is being paid to push a very specific line would be so obtuse.

Or just a moron who is too used to Reddit

[–] YearOfTheCommieDesktop@hexbear.net 18 points 1 year ago (2 children)

The title of this post reminded me of a classic clip: https://youtu.be/ZR0bVQmZpL8?t=94

"If you don't trust the CIA then who do you trust???"

[–] American_Communist22@lemmygrad.ml 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The funny part is where they couldn't just find another source, they just doubled down on being a CIA stooge

[–] Are_Euclidding_Me@hexbear.net 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I think it might be that they literally couldn't find another source. I'm still not convinced the "10 principles" are real.

Beginning to think that too, side note they are trying to hound my lemmygrad account now its very silly

[–] PoY@lemmygrad.ml 10 points 1 year ago

it's painful to think that people are that owned by their programming.. jfc

[–] honeynut@lemm.ee 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

okay but how do you feel about the ten principles???

amazing thread. It gets better when you read their comments like anarchist Ben Shapiro.

oh my god-

wait

ayyyyyyyyyy

ya got me

[–] robinn_IV@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago

They jus smashed their head on the keyboard, literally incomprehensible

[–] Wakmrow@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago

I was really wondering about this account
